RE: [ECOS] problem compiling hello.c

["Eric Castle" <ecastle at umich dot edu>]

I'm not familiar with the specific board you are using, but we got around a
similar problem by modifying the appropriate .ldi file (within
packages/hal/.../include/pkconfg) so as to map it into a different region of
memory (for us, we couldn't fit redboot into internal RAM, so we mapped part
of it into external RAM).

Also, "a.out" is an elf file (I figured that out by using objdump).

Hope that helps,

a.out section? I thought this was an elf compiler. Or is a.out the
name of the executable?

Anyway, google is your friend for FAQs.
